Susan Rice. Yup, the same person who, while serving as Obama’s ambassador to the U.N., went on television and repeatedly LIED to the American people about Benghazi. Shortly thereafter, Obama promoted her to National Security Adviser. Fancy that.

On dozens of occasions, National Security Adviser Rice requested the UNMASKING of the identities of U.S. persons connected to the Trump team.*

*When someone is a target of electronic eavesdropping, he or she is usually talking with someone else. The identities of non-target Americans are supposed to be MASKED with a pseudonym like “U.S. Person One” to protect their privacy.

When a conversation has national security implications, the National Security Adviser has the legal right to request unmasking. But the conversations Rice asked to be unmasked had NOTHING to do with Russia or any other national security issue andEVERYTHING to do with election year partisan politics.

The unmasked names of people associated with Donald Trump were also sent to Obama’s Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, Obama’s CIA Director John Brennan, Susan Rice’s deputy Ben Rhodes, and others at the National Security Council and Defense Department.
